Topic: Can gambling be considered a "high risk investment"? - page 18. (Read 11390 times)
Well, it could be people think so, because gambling is risky. however, in this case, you own that trigger gains and losses. if you play with reckless and lose control, it is certain that you will be defeated unless you have great luck, but if you can control yourself, it also does not guarantee winnings. but if you win, maybe you can get a lot of money, because that you can think of this as a high risk investment
I know it isn't an investment, but in the last few years some "high risk" investment funds have appeared, and in them you can either lose it all or earn a lot of money.
Isn't this basically the same as gambling? Wouldn't it be faster to just deposit the amount in a casino? At least you'd be able to spend your earnings much sooner
According To me Gambling Can't Be Considered As A High Risk Investment Because Investment Is Based on Your Mind Thinking and Some Luck But Gambling Only Depends Upon Pure Luck So It Can't Be Considered As a High Risk Investment.....

Gambling and investing in something are two completely different things which have nothing in common!
So please do not mix these words with each other.
Investing in something means you are expecting it to rise in it's value which will give a good return over a loger period of time.
Gambling however is more some kind of very short termed speculation or sometimes just pure wild guessing.And yes it can be very risky depending on what kind of bet you are willing to take and of course what you are gambling with.

I think gambling can be considered as a VERY high risk investment. It's basically an investment but the result of that investment can be seen in just a few seconds. If you take a look at the charts of gamblers, there are ups and downs (in Bustabit, particularly). It's the same as the sales report of a company. There are ups and downs and it all depends on how much money you bet and how high is the multiplier that you used.
anything related to gambling, it has a big risk. but in my opinion, it should, if as an investor it can always be profitable. Because of what? because the owner of the house always wins. proof that they can survive for a long time. if they always lose I think they would quickly go bankrupt.
Yes actually can be said another name of risk because your money is in stake.And if you are talking about high risk investement which is dont either to get quick profit and has a chance of loosing as well which is pretty similar in gambling.So i guess yes it can be considered as high risk investement.

Yes, it really consists of high risk. I will not say that it is some kind of investment, but yeah it is something in which we might win something or if we lose, we will lose everything and won't be left anything, all we will have is a 0 in the end.

Playing in gambling and investing in gambling it's very different. If we gamble in my opinion that's not including investments, since gains in getting the investment it can be obtained in a row. Very different from gambling that the gains depends on luck and it is uncertain.
Gambling always rely on our luck but investing in gambling is totally different, if we are investor and just enjoying the gambling than it is different than that, but I think we can't consider gambling as an investment because nobody know that what will be happen in future, investment in gambling casinos can't be compare with playing on them.

It is because we don't know if we are going to win whenever we do gambling. Maybe we are winning in the first place but after a while we didn't notice that we have lost a lot in gambling. Our mind only focused on one goal and that is "I'm going to win this time, no matter what." This is always the thought that we are thinking when we are doing gambling because we always wanted to win against the house though it is not possible because the house will never let that happen.
What you are referring is when you are a certain gambler who beat against the house, that is very obvious that will really lose in the long run as there is not exception to that, however we are talking here of investment so if gamblers loses in the long run you will be in profit in your are an investor.Well if you are the one gambling, i don't think it should even be considered as an investment. The risks are too high that instead of a chance for you to earn, you may very well be broke.

I know it isn't an investment, but in the last few years some "high risk" investment funds have appeared, and in them you can either lose it all or earn a lot of money.
Isn't this basically the same as gambling? Wouldn't it be faster to just deposit the amount in a casino? At least you'd be able to spend your earnings much sooner
I don't think gambling can be considered as high risk investment.It can be a game to check your luck and in this game you can be winner or loser.An investment you have chance to losing but not so fast like within minutes and in investment you have at least something left.Isn't this basically the same as gambling?

isn't it an investment when you are risking your money and hoping that it can grow ? similar to gambling , you are risking what you have in order to make it grow and you are putting your money waiting for it to double . gambling is also an investment that has a very high risk because in seconds or a minute you can lose all that you have .
No, an investment is something where you expect to have a positive expected value in time. In gambling, this is the complete opposite. No matter how you play, no matter how big you bankroll is, in the end you have a negative expected value.
I can only agree to the fact that gambling is an "investment", if you see investment as time or when you want to expect a negative outcome.
definition of investment:
the investing of money or capital in order to gain profitable returns, as interest, income, or appreciation in value.

Yup there are both risky because investing is your just risking your money too there and you don't have full enough control on your investment for me its better to gambling than to invest money because for me you have control on your money if you played with your money right and you will win up to 3xIsn't this basically the same as gambling?

i dont think gambling is high risk investment because we play it not invest it
but if we invest some btc on gambling site i agree it called high risk investment
because if the players win big amount we will lose our money thats called high risk investment on my side
If you expect some return from your gambling, you may call gambling as an investment option, that too high risk investment opportunity because gambling will not guarantee for any returns for the money we are putting into it. The chances of making returns from gambling is very low, so we could call gambling as high risk investment. but if we invest some btc on gambling site i agree it called high risk investment

In addition to what others have said, for anything to be considered to be an high risk investment then I guess that some elements of returns is possible although the risk is high, but you still get some forms of returns but that cannot be said of gambling as the returns on the money youre intending to put is not for whatever reason sure whether it will come back or not. You are assuming to have lost your money when gambling and thats not a factor of something to be an investment whether low or high...
